Stakeholders at a two-day workshop on Preventing Violent Extremism (PVE) in Prison Settings through Sports have advocated an improved systemic sporting approach in the rehabilitation and reintegration process in the Nigeria Correctional Service.
Speaking during the consultative workshop, organised by United Nations Office on Drugs and Crimes (UNODC) between October 10 and 11, 2023 in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, both the resource persons, experts and participants were of the view that sports remain veritable tool in the short and long term engagement of young people, particularly those in any prison confinement.
